📝 Useful Information

The Paramount Theatre in Abilene, Texas, will host screenings of the 1956 classic film Giant on June 5 and June 6, 2026. Part of the theatre's 2026 Film Series, these screenings celebrate the Texas-set epic starring Elizabeth Taylor, Rock Hudson, and James Dean.

Giant is a sweeping 3-hour and 21-minute drama that follows a wealthy Texas rancher and his family over several decades. It is particularly noted for being the final leading role for James Dean and for its portrayal of cultural clashes in mid-century Texas.
